Highway Accidents

Worcester Highway Accident Lawyer

Massachusetts highways pose unique risks for motorists; the 4 seasons cause unpredictable driving conditions and potholes, but the high rates of speed mean that when collisions happen, they often cause serious injuries. Read about common accident causes, plus how we handle and investigate accident claims and lawsuits.

Highway Accident Evidence:

Prompt, professional investigation and documentation by law-enforcement authorities are critical in highway accidents. Testimony from witnesses also helps establish exactly what happened and who was at fault.

Accidents on highways often involve specific evidence:

Skid marks.

Yaw marks.

Vehicle debris.

Road gauges.

Why is such evidence important?

If you’re injured in a highway accident, your attorney can hire experts in collision reconstruction. Expert analysis can help determine the facts of a crash.

Serious Damage from Highway Accidents

Fatalities on Massachusetts’ roads are among the lowest in the nation. The state had just 4.9 deaths per 100,000 residents in 2014. That year, 310 fatal crashes occurred, and 328 people died.

Although the crash rates are low compared to the rest of the country, the results of those accidents were devastating for the individuals involved.

Highway accidents are especially costly, in damage to property and in the frequently irreparable damage to people’s lives. Families can be financially ruined by ongoing medical treatment, surgeries, multiple hospitalizations and — in some cases — lifelong therapy for accident victims.
